I was taught (from reading here and the S2H class) that quick drop is not really intended for use much beyond 500 yards as it’s less consistent at further distances. Additionally, the margin for error is significant enough with elevation/wind for longer shots that many people rely on a calculator or at least the phone lock screen at ranges beyond 500. Quick drop is meant for quick shots and rarely are people shooting quickly at ranges beyond 500 yards, probably much closer for most.

I agree. I was just trying to throw a bone to the moa guys 😅

I printed out some drop and wind cards and tape them to my stock last fall so that I wouldn't have to mess with my phone in a longer shot situation. It worked very well

Is everyone’s illumination pretty dim with this scope? I have never had an illuminated reticle before so not sure what I was expecting but I thought it would be brighter. On level ten on low power it’s still barely visible.

Mine was very dim compared to other scopes but I was OK with it because I would only use it in very low light. I have a NF SHV that's so bright the whole reticle tree glows even though it's only supposed to be center illumination, terrible.

Oh lol I just realized who I replied to and that's the same scope. I hope you like it, but hopefully somebody else will chime in with their experience as well to be sure it's not just that one scope.
